If he signs here, he's almost guaranteed to play in a Conference Finals. If he signs in Miami or Utah, it's barely guaranteed that he'd make the playoffs. That has to beat all other considerations if he cares about the game first and foremost.

Tp Nick - Ingles isn't an all-star (or even impact player, really). If Hayward stays in Utah because of Joe Ingles, well, then, I don't know what to say.

Big meeting coming up with the Cs. If Hayward cares about winning, then we are the obvious choice. Nothing we can do otherwise.

This is a huge test for Stevens and Ainge. If they can't attract Hayward to the Celtics, I imagine it would make future free agents view Boston as a lesser destination.

Absolutely.  This has to happen.

And this most definitely needs to be part of the Celtics presentation to Hayward!

It's funny how now it seems like most Celtics fans all around (media sites, etc) now think Hayward to Boston is officially dead.

Just wait for the few tweets tomorrow talking about how he's enjoying Boston and then it will all change LOL.

Or at least I hope.

I think Utah is the favorite. It all just feels like meeting with Boston is more of a courtesy to Brad because of their past.
Not too corteous as he's caused us to miss out on the first week of FA. I think we've got a better shot than Miami and if he was really married to Utah he wouldn't be taking these meetings at all.

Yep, I think it's pretty close to 50/50 with us and Utah. I think Miami was largely just a show thing. It doesn't make sense with us in the mix.

Ultimately, Hayward is a smart guy, and if he really wants to win and a bigger overall spotlight, Boston is clearly his choice. At this point, Utah is highly unlikely to even have a chance for home court advantage in the playoffs, and they could very well be just fighting to make it with strong seasons from Denver, Minny, Portland, and Memphis.

I'd like Hayward to come here just to shut the SLC Dunk blog/Twitter page up.
